Five Guys

Five Guys Employee Review

Very demanding job with no work/life balance

General Manager (Current Employee) - Long Island, NY - December 5, 2022

Five Guys is a good company, but the leadership is not so great. Our DM is arrogant and unprofessional. The expectation is that you should work till you drop. Working 6-7 days a week has become the norm, if you can’t come in on your day off or stay for a double shift whenever it’s needed, you are viewed as lazy and not being a team player.. Upper management makes you feel uncomfortable when you request PTO, like if you’re doing something wrong. There’s a complete lack of support from the DM & AM. There’s no appreciation for all the hard work we put in. The company is always looking at turnover on a store level, but they should start looking at the bigger picture. They need to stop over working their employees.
